Physics Paper Analysis

IIT JEE 2009 Physics Paper : Difficulty Level Analysis & Areawise Distribution
Since the pattern of examination has changed to objective type of questions, the difficulty levels of the papers have dipped but the competitive
surge has grown stronger. Some of the questions asked are from Classes XI and XII and since all students have been exposed to them, they
are easy to solve. The simpler problems should not be taken lightly as they, too, contribute in perking up the scores and any mistake
committed in solving them means a dip in scores.
In Physics Paper I about 40% of the questions are easy, 37% of the questions are of medium range difficulty and 25% are difficult. In Paper
1155% questions are easy 20% questions are of medium level of difficulty and 23% are difficult.
In Chemistry Paper I, about 25% questions are easy, 70% are of medium level difficulty and 5% are difficult. In Chemistry Paper II, About 24%
of the questions are easy, 37% of the questions are mildly difficult and 38% are difficult.
In Mathematics Paper 1,40% questions are easy to solve, 50% are of medium level and 8% are difficult to solve. In Mathematics Paper II about
22% of the questions are easy and can be solved without difficulty by all the candidates. Around 55% of the questions are of medium level of
difficulty and 20% are difficult and require special scholarly abilities to be solved.

Difficulty Level Analysis in IIT JEE 2009

Analysis of IIT JEE Physics Questions (2006-09)

The complexity of the ITT JEE arises from the fact that the questions are always unique in their context, and solving them often requires a
combination of concepts from across the different chapters. Nevertheless, some basic data analysis can be quite revealing and could give
some important insights into how one should go about preparing for each subject. Such analysis forms the basic of our understanding of the
JEE.
Note

A : Straight Objective Type
